DASH ADVENTURE CLUB
Thailand
Expecting serene temples, limestone islands, and Pad Thai? Sure, but Dash has a whole lot more in store for you.
Let’s talk Custom Dash … Our first Thailand Race was a custom ‘pre-wedding’ event. With families and friends attending a Thailand destination wedding from the USA, Canada, Malaysia, Australia, the UK, Germany (and another 6 countries), it just made sense to make the trip worth everyone’s while. And what better way to make a destination wedding something properly awesome (and to turn a roomful of strangers into friends), than a custom Dash Adventure Race? (not actually a question - there is no better way)
Custom events are true to the Dash recipe - physical activity, friendly(ish) competition, adrenalin adventures, and some cultural interaction. Of course with a custom event, you get the benefit of our planning and awesomeness with the flexibility to craft a perfect blend of events for your own Dashers.
Our Thailand custom race took 65 guests, many who didn’t know each other, put them into 8 teams and then pitted them against each other in a range of activities. Things like a dance competition to Beyoncé’s floor filler, ‘Single Ladies’ (which would later become the first dance) a scavenger hunt through Bangkok, a poker tournament, an escape room race and an inflatable water obstacle course. With a mix of ages and fitness levels, we ran two streams of optional events, each of which contributed to points for the race. On Day 3, it was ‘Taste or Traverse’ - Compete for your team in rockclimbing, or if that’s not your thing, you’re lining up for a ‘Masterchef’ style competitive cook-off. On Day 4, it was ‘Fight or Flight’ - are you up for a Muay Thai class and then to step in the ring against a professional Thai fighter? If not, you’re in to take on the zipline course, collecting puzzle pieces at each stop to complete once finished- with race points up for grabs.
Custom events are perfect for pre or post wedding events, for end-of-season sports team trips, big family holidays, big birthday events… pretty much anything where you’re getting a group together, you want to see an interesting country without having to plan and organise it yourself, and you want some physical challenges and some adrenalin adventures with lots of laughs, all tied together in a competitive race format.
